I recently had a change to visit the butterfly Conservatory in Niagara Falls, ON Canada. Very kool as the butterflies are allowed to “roam free” within the dome, there were literally hundreds in free flight all around, and several times I had them landing on me or one of my boys that were with me on the trip.

Talk about a “captive audience”!:D

The interior of the conservatory is basically a rainforest environment as seen here

here's one about to “take off”

and one just landing

these last two are actually the same butterfly, one with wings open and one closed, looks almost like two completely different butterflies.
